Usage
Placing
A repeater is placed on top of a full, solid block, facing away from the player. It drops as an item when that block goes.
Setting the delay
Right-clicking a repeater sets its delay to the next of 2, 4, 6 and 8 ticks, and from 8 back to 2. A new repeater starts at 2.
Behaviour
Power
A repeater takes its input from the block behind it alone. The input is on when that block is a power source powering the repeater, a powered block, or dust carrying power. While on, a repeater strongly powers the block in front of it, and nothing else.
A repeater is not a power source, so a door, trapdoor, TNT, note block, dispenser or rail ignores the block updates a repeater sends as it switches.
Delay
A repeater turns on one delay after its input is powered, and then stays on for at least one delay, however short the input was. It turns off one delay after its input goes off, if the input is still off by then.
Random ticks never cut its delay short. A crowded tick queue can make it run long; see Redstone Power.
